Diagnosis Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Nissan Maxima. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. CHECK DTC PRIORITY 

    If DTC P2101 is displayed with DTC P2100 or P2119, first perform the confirmation procedure for DTC P2100 or P2119.

    Is applicable DTC detected?

    YES

    Perform diagnosis of applicable.

    NO

    GO TO 2.

  2. CHECK THROTTLE CONTROL MOTOR RELAY INPUT SIGNAL 
    1. Check the voltage between ECM harness connector terminals.
